i used:
border: 1px 1px 1px 1px;
border-style:solid;
but the border line seems to be so thick. i can almost be sure that i have seen thinner border line somewhere. could you make it thinner or did they use images for it?
A:
You may try consolidating your rules into a single short-hand declaration:
border: 1px solid black;

@noname: Try my second solution then. If it doesn't work, it's likely that something else is messing with the border, which would be discovered through firebug, or an equivalent.

Perhaps a lighter color was used on the border, (silver instead of black) which often gives the illusion of being thinner.

If you mean the borders around the table cells then they will appear thicker because they aren't "collapsable" - you have to write this:
table {
border-collapse: collapse;
}
and it should make the borders on every side of a cell one pixel thick (or thin as you want to call it!) within a table.

** Copied from my comment on the question itself **
Actually, I just noticed that you have the border short-hand declaration, which expects several parameters in a precise order. (ie. border: 1px solid black) What you have specified above is invalid. Could that be your problem?
